SketchEllipses Object

Derived from: Base Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Sketch/SketchEllipses.h>

Description

The collection of ellipses in a sketch. This provides access to the existing ellipses and supports the methods to create new ellipses.

Methods

Name Description
add Creates a sketch ellipse using the center point, a point defining the major axis and a third point anywhere along the ellipse. The created ellipse is parallel to the x-y plane of the sketch.
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
item Function that returns the specified sketch ellipse using an index into the collection.

Properties

Name Description
count Returns the number of ellipses in the sketch.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
